Just sent and inquiry about this radio I found on Craigslist. Looks like a Philco to me, but I no idea which one. Anyone want to take a guess?

Definitely not a Philco. It is a Crosley New Fiver.

Moved to Other Radios (Non-Philco) since it is not a Philco radio.

Ah! Thanks!

There is a radio inside of it, just not in the this photo. Haven't heard back from the seller, so it could be a moot point anyway.
